Very slow upload speed r6700
Hello, I'm getting very slow upload speed and I have no idea why. It will only get up to 0.6 mb on a speed test. Is there a way to fix this? Also I'm using a TP-Link range extender ethernet port.

How are you testing speeds? Directly connected to the router? using wireless? wireless 2.4ghz or 5ghz?
What website are you testing on?
What speeds do you get directly connected to the modem/gateway?What speeds do you get wired to the router?
Make sure not to test connected to the extender. Extenders drop throughput 50% of what they're getting (for single/dual band) and thats what they're getting. and upload is already slow.
What modem/gateway is the router connected to? : I don't know what it is ill figure it out in a minute.
